[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 565536, member: 1550"] I also don't regard ODD as a real diagnosis. Has your son ever been completely evaluated by a private psychiatrist or neuropsychologist? ODD symptoms usually point to a bigger, larger diagnosis. Also, if his symptoms are now worse, have you considered recreational drug abuse? Unfortunately (I know first hand) this is probably the most common reason a child changes significantly and for the worst as a teen, even if there are other underlying issues. Can you go into how he was as an infant, toddler and younger child? It will help us. Does anyone on either side of his biological family tree have any psychiatric or neurological problems, such as bipolar, mood disorders not otherwise specified, or autistic spectrum disorder (Aspergers?). Has he ever been physically abused? [/QUOTE]
